SUMMARY:Delft Design for Values Impact Day
DESCRIPTION:About the event\nOn 5 March 2026\, the Delft Design for Values Institute (DDfV) will organize an impact day for all its members (from the faculties of IO\, BK\, EWI\, CITG and TBM). \nRecently\, the DDfV has established several Special Interest Groups (SIGs) on topics such as open strategic autonomy\, design justice\, education\, and the AI Act\, as well as a number of seed projects (for an overview\, see this page). During this event\, members will be informed about these activities and projects\, explore potential synergies\, and prepare for an externally focused Impact Day to connect insights developed within DDfV to practice*. \nThe event will contribute to collaboration and synergies between different faculties in the area of design for values\, and so help to strengthen the internal ecosystem as well as the possibilities to reach out to relevant external stakeholders. You are cordially invited to participate! \nObjectives\nThe Impact Day aims to: \n\nInform the DDfV community about current SIGs and projects\nIdentify connections and synergies across projects\, SIGs\, and individuals\, and initiate exchanges\n\nProgramme\n09:00 – 09:30 Welcome09:30 – 10:00 Opening10:00 – 11:00 Introductions of SIGs\, projects\, and researchers (2-minute presentations)11:00 – 12:30 Brainstorm on collaborations\, increasing impact\, and matchmaking12:30 – 13:30 Lunch \nRegistration\nPlease register via the registration form  and upload your slides to the shared slide deck before 28 February.

SUMMARY:EdSIG DDfV session | Student Responsibility and Value Awareness through Portfolios
DESCRIPTION:EdSIG Session | Student Responsibility and Value Awareness through Portfolios\n31 March 2026 | 12:45–13:45 | TU Delft Teaching Lab \nWe warmly invite the education community to join our upcoming reflective session about portfolio trajectories to foster responsibility and value awareness in engineering education. \nAbout this session\nIn this session\, we will reflect on a concrete example from practice: the portfolio trajectory developed at Mechanical Engineering. Pim van der Male will present this case and walk us through how the portfolio approach has been implemented to support students in developing responsibility and value awareness throughout their studies. \nTogether\, we will explore how portfolios can serve as a tool for students to recognize\, articulate\, and reflect on values in their academic and professional development. We will also discuss the challenges and opportunities that emerge when integrating such approaches\, and what lessons can be drawn for other educational contexts at TU Delft. \nBy examining this specific case\, we aim to uncover insights that can inspire Design for Values in education more broadly\, whether you are already working with values in your teaching or are just starting to explore the possibilities. \nA new meeting series\nThis reflective session kicks off a new meeting series in which educators share\, discuss\, and learn from each other’s practices on Design for Values across the University. The series is organized by the Education SIG of the Delft Design for Values Institute in collaboration with the TU Delft Teaching Academy. \nThe goal of these sessions is to create a space for open exchange\, bringing together educators\, support staff\, and students to reflect on what works\, what doesn’t\, and how we can strengthen value-thinking in TU Delft education together. \nPractical information\n12:30 walk-in & lunch (vegetarian)\n12:45 session starts\n13:45 end of session\nLocation: TU Delft Teaching Lab\, Arena / Forum\nTarget audience: Educators and Education Support Staff \nTo make sure there is enough lunch for everyone\, please register in advance via the link below. \nRegister here \nGet involved\nHave a teaching activity you’d like to discuss or explore in a future session\, whether past\, ongoing\, or still just an idea?

SUMMARY:Design for Digital Autonomy - DDfV impact day
DESCRIPTION:Recent geopolitical developments show that the Netherlands is vulnerable when it comes to its dependence on digital infrastructure and services from other countries and large technology companies. This is also reflected in TU Delft’s position paper on Open Strategic Autonomy. It has led to an increasing call for digital autonomy\, in politics\, in advisory reports and in scientific research. But what exactly do we mean by digital autonomy? And what can organizations\, such as municipalities\, universities and companies\, do to advance digital autonomy?\n\nThe event focuses on the question of how we can foster digital autonomy and what choices this entails. What is needed to foster and operationalize digital autonomy? Which policies effectively contributes to this? What knowledge is needed? Digital autonomy is a broad theme for organizations and to act effectively\, cooperation\, effective policy and clear (design) guidelines are crucial.\n\nDuring this event\, we strive for cross-pollination between policy\, practice and science\, and between different domains (municipalities\, implementing organisations\, universities). We investigate where the shared challenges (cross-sectoral) and obstacles lie\, what central values play a role in the design of digital technology in combination with digital autonomy\, where value tensions occur and how we can put digital autonomy into practice.\n\n\n\nMore information & Registration
